st: ordering of categories when cross-tabulating

Dear Statalist users,
I'm trying to produce a simple cross-tabulation table with gender on the rows and how important people think a program X is on the columns.
The categories for the columns are " Very important", "Somewhat important", "Not Important"
Is there a way I can guarantee that the order in which the column categories are displayed are (from left to right) " Very important", "Somewhat important", "Not Important".
Stata usually orders them alphabetically but I'm interested in a specific ordering.
Can this be done?
Thanks!
Ana
